Opel Mokka (12 - present)

The Opel Mokka was introduced into a fiercely competitive SUV/crossover market in mid-2012 to compete with the likes of the Nissan Juke, Kia Sportage, and Skoda Yeti. It was a brand new model and has made a name for itself in this cut-throat segment. The chunky, bulky looks and high ground clearance give it a serious road presence and make it look significantly bigger. It is a practical, well-built car with a good level of standard equipment and safety kit. Materials are durable, robust, and for the most part good quality. There’s plenty of space in the cabin and it is capable of carrying five and storing their luggage in a large boot. It is a decent car to drive with plenty of pep in the engines and a nice sporty feel to the chassis. It does have some off-roading ability with the 4x4 versions. The supportive seating and higher ride height make it a stand out choice for those after a comfortable drive.

A facelift in 2016 saw it renamed the Mokka X and get a much needed interior makeover, as well as a new engine line up and a wider choice of colours.
